quite a secluded spot that it is involved in and he is saying that he believed that cars couldn't easily get up to a high speed. police were called just before ten o'clock this morning. as i say, we know a number of people have been injured and the mp stephen hammond telling is that he believes he understands that some could be critical, but at the moment, the police haven't confirmed the number of people injured, or indeed, the seriousness of those injuries, but the fact that the air ambulance has been dispatched probably gives you a sense of how serious the ambulance service and the other emergency services are taking this, if casualties have to be airlifted to hospital. also, paramedics being dispatched, as you would imagine, in ambulances. but as i say, we don't know the seriousness of it. we do know the seriousness of it. we do know the seriousness of it. we do know the police have said it is not being treated as terror —related, so
12:01 pm
thatis being treated as terror —related, so that is a key piece of information. of course, when any incident like this happens, people ask what has caused this. an investigation ongoing, but the police telling us it is not terror related. that is something the police have confirmed in the last half an hour or so. as i say, we do not know why that driver lost control may be, and why he or she crashed into the building. we do not know what happened to cause this accident, and why they have gone into the school building. but we do know that there is a number of injuries, and a big operation by the emergency services ongoing at the moment. it emergency services ongoing at the moment. , , ., , moment. it is interesting, and it is helful for moment. it is interesting, and it is helpfulforyou _ moment. it is interesting, and it is helpful for you to _ moment. it is interesting, and it is helpful for you to go _ moment. it is interesting, and it is helpful for you to go through - moment. it is interesting, and it is helpful for you to go through all i moment. it is interesting, and it is helpful for you to go through all ofj helpful for you to go through all of those details, as they come in. i wasjust thinking we those details, as they come in. i was just thinking we could reflect a bit more and when we first heard about this news. if we go back to what the metropolitan police, their statement said that police were
12:02 pm
called at 954 hours on thursday disick ofjuly two reports of a land rover vehicle having collided with a primary school building at camp road, in swi9, primary school building at camp road, in sw 19, south—west london in wimbledon. just before ten o'clock in the morning, i think from that, we can safely deduce that the children were on site at the school at that time. although, of course, we don't know anything about the identity of possible casualties at the school location. but as the mp stephen hammond has also told us, it was the last day of term at this private independent school. yes. private independent school. yes, that is right- _ private independent school. yes, that is right. the _ private independent school. yes, that is right. the last _ private independent school. yes, that is right. the last day - private independent school. 133 that is right. the last day of private independent school. 1&1: that is right. the last day of term, as you say, reports coming in just before ten o'clock to the police, so you would have thought that most of the students would be at school by ten o'clock in the morning. the school itself is not commenting, as you can imagine, during an incident like this. they have far better things to deal with an answer calls
12:03 pm
from the press, so they are not commenting. but there are some comments from the wimbledon and putney commons area. they have owes people to stay away from the area, saying that following the incident at the edge of the common on camp road, the public are asked to avoid the area of the commons to allow free access to the emergency services. they say emergency vehicles are likely to be using the commons to get through to the location, so please, keep alert to what is happening. of course, people in the area are being told to stay away to let the emergency services get through to the area. as you say, the last day of term at the school, which has been there for many years, as the mp was saying. very well respected and deals with children from four to ii. respected and deals with children from four to 11. as the people saying, this particular building one that houses the fall to eight—year—olds, so the younger end of those people who would be attending that school. —— the four to eight—year—olds. just to recap some of those things the mp stephen
12:04 pm
hammond said. you said that a course it was extraordinarily distressing on the last day of term, and anybody can imagine if you have a child at that school, was they must be going through. he has spoken to the police. there are a number of casualties. he was saying his understanding was that some of them, he didn't give a number, were being treated as critical, and he did say it was only his understanding at the moment. and as we have been saying, the fire brigades there in attendance in case there has been structural damage to the building, of course, they will want to make sure that the building itself is safe, and that nothing can happen. we have seen pictures from the scene of a large operation by the combined emergency services, both fire, ambulance and the police here. which is caettin ambulance and the police here. which is getting some _ ambulance and the police here. which is getting some use _ ambulance and the police here. which is getting some use any _ ambulance and the police here. which is getting some use any here, - ambulance and the police here. which is getting some use any here, a statement from the metropolitan police saying that seven children and two adults have been injured, after a car collided with a primary

12:06 pm
was deployed. we had reports of that, but that has been confirmed. at this time, nine people, as you have been saying, reported injured. this includes two adults and seven children. the statements as they await further details on their conditions, further updates. the driver of the vehicle was stopped at the scene, so they say that, but there have been no arrests. a little bit more information, and also, they are not treating this as terror related. your information in that statement from the metropolitan police. we can confirm from the metropolitan release that nine people have been reported injured, thatis people have been reported injured, that is two adults and seven children. we do not know their condition at the moment, from the police, we are awaiting updates, but a reminder that the mp stephen hammond told us that his understanding was that some were critical. that is the latest we have. nine people injured at the moment. have. nine people in'ured at the moment. ., have. nine people in'ured at the moment. . , , moment. 0k, we are 'ust seeing the latest

12:08 pm
around there. here, we can see the ambulances are there, and lots of activity going on. but you can see just as the helicopter shot pans away, you can see this helicopter shot will move around a bit as it is onlyjust got to the scene, but you can see, i am counting at least three or four ambulances there on that road, and you can see coming into the centre of your screen there, that building and what looks like that black land rover, and we did know it was a land rover that had gone into the school building. and you can see there is a fencing area around there, so it does look like that will have had to have gone through that fence, to go into that building. you can see there is what looks like a bit of debris around where the land rover has gone into that building, but you can also see the police activity around there. it does look at the moment, colm at the
12:09 pm
scenes, so the police and emergency services do seem to have got it under control. —— karma at the seams. but you can see that where the building has been hit and that fencing are area around it. lets 'ust fencing are area around it. lets just reaffirm — fencing are area around it. lets just reaffirm the _ fencing are area around it. lets just reaffirm the statement as well we have received from the metropolitan police, the information thatis metropolitan police, the information that is just come in that seven children and two adults have been injured after that vehicle collided with the primary school building in south—west london. if we can take those images again, because we are just getting, as you can see, that is the range rover in the centre of the screen, and it is curious, because it seems it has ventured onto school grounds, and it seems it is surrendered by fencing, and it is difficult to see at this point how the vehicle entered onto school
12:10 pm
grounds. confirmation from the metropolitan police of those injuries. we should say again that this incident is not being treated as terror related, which is another significant piece of information, but we don't know much more behind the scene. joining us now to get some more information, on the line is ian barclay from riverside radio, on the scene. what can you tell us? i am standing at the top of camp road. there were two emergency vehicles about a quarter of an hour agojust outside the vehicles about a quarter of an hour ago just outside the school. only one remains, and i have seen one and didn't leave the scene, but there are loads of ambulances standing by, and i havejust seen are loads of ambulances standing by, and i have just seen a fireman leave the scheme as well —— leave the scene. but the fire brigade hasn't

12:13 pm
getting information from the metropolitan police that seven children and two adults have been injured. after a car, which we now know as a land rover, collided with a primary school building in wimbledon, south london, on thursday morning. ian, if we could keep you with us, can you tell is a little bit more about the location, and anything you might know about the school itself? it is anything you might know about the school itself?— school itself? it is a private prep school, school itself? it is a private prep school. as _ school itself? it is a private prep school, as far _ school itself? it is a private prep school, as far as _ school itself? it is a private prep school, as far as i _ school itself? it is a private prep school, as far as i know. - school itself? it is a private prep school, as far as i know. it i school itself? it is a private prep school, as far as i know. it has l school, as far as i know. it has recently been extensively modernised. it is a very popular... i have a friend who sent her daughter there, and then she went on to wimbledon a high school, so that is a prep school for that sort of school. ,, ., ., is a prep school for that sort of school. ,, . ., ., ., yes, school. quite a large location. yes, and i can school. quite a large location. yes, and i can see _ school. quite a large location. yes, and i can see another _ school. quite a large location. yes, and i can see another ambulance i and i can see another ambulance entering the scene now. ian. and i can see another ambulance entering the scene now. ian, thank

12:15 pm
confirmed that nine people have been injured, now, they are two adults and seven children. but we don't have any news on their condition at the moment. the school involved is a private school called the study prep school in camp road, and it deals with girls between the ages of four and 11. the local mp stephen hammond told us earlier that that particular building is where the fall to eight—year—olds attend, so the four 28—year—olds, we think are ads that building, ratherthan 28—year—olds, we think are ads that building, rather than the older building, rather than the older building, who are at a never building. he of course called it extremely distressing. —— at another building. you can see on screen a huge amount of emergency services there. the police sent a large number of officers to the scene. the london ambulance service also dispatched a first responders, and
12:16 pm
we have had confirmation that the air ambulance was also sent, which could give you a sense of how serious it was being treated, and the seriousness, may be, of the injuries. the fact the air ambulance was dispatched. the london fire brigade is also sent two fire engines, a stephen hammond the local mp suggested to us, because there may be concerns about the structural damage of that building, which you can see on your screen at the moment. the land rover has crashed into that. you can see some damage to that building, and debris around there, as we say, the situation is very calm at the scene. the emergency services are obviously now, i have it under control. they are dealing with it and it is an ongoing incident, and those nine people have been injured, two adults and seven children, but we don't at the moment and know their condition.
12:17 pm
thank you for taking us through that. i willjust add one statement i am reading from the metropolitan police, that has emphasised that the driver of the vehicle was stopped at the scene, and there have been no arrests, and again, this incident is not believed to be terror —related. let's cross live to our reporter nickjohnson. you are at the scene. what can you tell us?— what can you tell us? yes, as you have 'ust what can you tell us? yes, as you have just been — what can you tell us? yes, as you have just been hearing, _ what can you tell us? yes, as you have just been hearing, it - what can you tell us? yes, as you have just been hearing, it is i what can you tell us? yes, as you have just been hearing, it is still i have just been hearing, it is still very much an ongoing emergency seen here. i could probably say there are close to two dozen emergency vehicles here at the moment. just to give you an idea of the geography of the area, this is quite a green part of south—west london. there is a common, with some roads dissecting it, and behind the common, is a small narrow road, that you may be able to see behind me, which leads down to the entrance of the school. as you go down that narrow road...
12:18 pm
we had peer to have lost our audio from nickjohnson. —— we appear to have lost. unfortunately. we will try to get him back as soon as we can, but let'sjust go try to get him back as soon as we can, but let's just go over what we do know again. we have heard reports that there have been nine injuries, including two adults and seven children, who have been injured at the scene of a school in south—west london. they were injured when a vehicle crashed into the school. let's cross back now again to our reporter on the scene, nickjohnson. yes, as you were saying, we don't know the condition of those people who have been injured, but we can see down towards the entrance of the school, which is down a narrow road behind me, but in ambulances down there with its doors open and its blue lights going, and we understand that somebody is being treated in
12:19 pm
that somebody is being treated in that embolus at the moment. it is still an ongoing scene here, and there are lots of emergency personnel are going to and from the scene and to their vehicles. —— treated in that ambulance. i would say that's close to two dozen unbalanced vehicles at the moment, and as you were saying, the school is quite isolated, in the sense it sits on top of a comet in south—west london. —— two dozen ambulance vehicles. it is a private preparatory school, and it has ages between four and 11, but as we have heard from mp stephen hammond, he believes that the building the vehicle crashed into is one where children at the younger age of that range would have been at the time. it is still very much an ongoing situation here, as you were saying, a number of people injured. we don't know what their condition is at the moment. we are expecting to hear a little bit more from police and emergency services here, but it is however, as the reporter was saying
12:20 pm
before hand, while it is ongoing, it is calmer. i have seen no further crews arrive at this stage. as we heard from metropolitan police, nobody has been arrested, and they are not treating it as a suspected terrorism incidents.— are not treating it as a suspected terrorism incidents. thank you for ttoin terrorism incidents. thank you for going over — terrorism incidents. thank you for going over that — terrorism incidents. thank you for going over that with _ terrorism incidents. thank you for going over that with us. _ terrorism incidents. thank you for going over that with us. if - terrorism incidents. thank you for going over that with us. if you i terrorism incidents. thank you forj going over that with us. if you can just stay with us, i'd just like to review what we have learned from stephen hammond, the mp for wimbledon that we spoke with earlier. he told us that this was the last day of term as this independent school, and he said that many of the children who attended that location of the school are between the ages of four and eight. although the school itself has girls attending between the ages of four and 11, we do know that that particular location at some of the younger children. to add to that, we know from the metropolitan police, their statement that at the time, we believe that nine people are
12:21 pm
reported injured, these include two adults and seven children. i think when we look at the visuals we have of the scene, those aerial shots. it seems to be evident that there was some kind of activity possibly going on. we can see a chair outside near the vehicle, near that's land rover that appears to have crashed into the school, possibly a table. so, it was the last day of term, possibly some kind of outdoor activity. of course, we don't know many of the details surrounding this incident. nick, let's cross back to you. you said that it has been relatively quiet. i can see, you said there was one ambulance that appears to be treating someone. how close are you to that ambulance? what more can you tell us? ., , ., , ., , tell us? you might be able to see behind me _ tell us? you might be able to see behind me some _ tell us? you might be able to see behind me some police _ tell us? you might be able to see behind me some police officers . tell us? you might be able to see l behind me some police officers and otherjournalists, and that is the extent of the croydon, and beyond the police took tape down there, thatis the police took tape down there, that is where we understand the
12:22 pm
incident unfolded. —— the extent of the cordon. where we understand emergency services were called a little bit before ten o'clock this morning. as you say, it is common, but there is a substantial province from the emergency services here. there is close to two dozen ambulances, beaded assault of ambulances, beaded assault of ambulances you can see behind me or the small at first response units. —— a substantial presence. there is also a few fire brigade units as well that are parked across the common, the other side of me. it seems at this stage that the amount of vehicles are here because perhaps initially, emergency services weren't sure what they would be dealing with when they got here. it does seem from where i am standing that those vehicles, a number of them that are parked here are here on standby, just in case they should be needed. i would try to pan the camera around to show you the number of vehicles, but the signal here
12:23 pm
isn't great. in terms of the active emergency response that is ongoing now, as you mentioned, behind that chord and, just behind me, there is an ambulance with its blue light still on, with its back door open, and what looks like someone being treated. —— behind the cording. as you mentioned, we know a number of people have been injured in this incident, some children and some adults, and we don't yet know, that ambulance you see behind me might have actually been the one that was down treating that casualty by the entrance to the school. we know, as you say, a number of children and adults have been injured. we don't yet know their condition, and police say that nobody has been arrested, and we are expecting to hear more details from them, but they are saying nobody has been arrested and are not treating this as a terrorist incident. ., ~ , ., , . . incident. thank you very much. we will let you — incident. thank you very much. we will let you go _ incident. thank you very much. we will let you go for _ incident. thank you very much. we will let you go for a _ incident. thank you very much. we will let you go for a minute - incident. thank you very much. we will let you go for a minute so i incident. thank you very much. we will let you go for a minute so you | will let you go for a minute so you can get some more information on what is going on down there. as nick
12:24 pm
hasjust said, we what is going on down there. as nick has just said, we should emphasise again that this incident is not believed to be tebbutt —related, and there have been no arrests at the scene. —— related to terrorism. but the driver of the vehicle was stopped at the scene. let's cross back to you now, i wonder if you could take us through what we know again. the map and what relation we are speaking about in london. —— the location we are speaking about. with the various authorities are saying at the moment.— the various authorities are saying at the moment. absolutely. one line i am at the moment. absolutely. one line i am getting. — at the moment. absolutely. one line i am getting. the _ at the moment. absolutely. one line i am getting, the shadow _ at the moment. absolutely. one line i am getting, the shadow home i i am getting, the shadow home secretary yvette cooper has just tweeted because lots of reaction coming in from politicians to this incident. she says thinking about the families, pupils, and staff affected by the terrible incident at affected by the terrible incident at a primary school in wimbledon this morning. she says thank you to the emergency responders on sites for their response. that is from the labour party shadow home secretary
12:25 pm
yvette cooper, saying thinking of the families, pupils and staff affected by the terrible incident at the primary school. let me recap what we know. the police say they were called to reports of a car colliding into a school in wimbledon in south—west london. this was just before ten o'clock this morning. they say that then, emergency services and a big operation swung into action. police were deployed and the fire service sent to by engines, and the london ambulance service sent paramedics and also the air ambulance. service sent paramedics and also the airambulance. we service sent paramedics and also the air ambulance. we now know that nine people have been injured, and they include two adults and seven children. we don't know their condition at the moment, but stephen hammond, the local mp, who spoke to us earlier, said it was his understanding that a number of the casualties were being treated as critical. i have to reemphasise it is only stephen hammond who understands that, and we have not
12:26 pm
had that component from any official sources to us at the moment, because of course, as nick are corresponded at the scene was saying, the operation is still under way. he was saying he could count around a dozen emergency services vehicles in the area, and from the aerial pictures from the helicopter, you can see a number of ambulances there as well, as well as the land rover there, you can see as well that actually crashed into the school. the police say they are not treating this as a tablet —related incident. so always, when an incident like this happens, people wonder why it happened. well, it was not related to terrorism. we don't know why it has happened, but the driver has been stopped at the scene, and there has been no arrests, the police are telling us, so the driver was stopped, so but no arrests, and not being treated as
12:27 pm
related to terrorism. a big operation is still ongoing at the school. it is a private school called the study. as we have been having, it is near wimbledon, and about a mile away from where the wimbledon tennis championships are going on, but as our correspondent described, and also the mp stephen hammond, it is in a slightly remote area, which is that one road is going down, and is stephen hammond saying how he couldn't see how people could get up to a high speed on that road, because it is quite secluded. a green area of south—west london. being described as by, the common. not that long from the wimbledon championships. but the fire brigades there, as well, just to check that there is any structural damage to the building, because of course, when incidents like this happens, you want to make sure the building is going to be safe. we can see the pictures there of that land rover, and
12:28 pm
